When Alice agreed to appear in a reality cooking show with her father, she had no idea she’d
find herself in the middle of a mystery! Will Alice and her new friends be able to save the show?
A light-hearted and funny middle grade novel for fans of Rebecca Stead and Linda Mulally Hunt.
Alice Fleck’s father is a culinary historian, and for as long as she can remember, she’s been
helping him recreate meals from the past—a hobby she prefers to keep secret from kids her
age. But when her father’s new girlfriend enters them into a cooking competition at a Victorian
festival, Alice finds herself and her hobby thrust into the spotlight.
And that’s just the first of many surprises awaiting her. On arriving at the festival, Alice learns
that she and her father are actually contestants on Culinary Combat, a new reality TV show
hosted by Tom Truffleman, the most famous and fierce judge on TV! And to make matters
worse, she begins to suspect that someone is at work behind the scenes, sabotaging the
competition.
It’s up to Alice, with the help of a few new friends, to find the saboteur before the entire
competition is ruined, all the while tackling some of the hardest cooking challenges of her
life…for the whole world to see.
